Episode notes
Youth Violence Linked to Online Desensitization
- Modern youth violence is partly fueled by daily exposure to brutal online violence and true crime glorification.
- This desensitization reduces respect for human life and normalizes aggressive behavior.
Left View of Violence as "Volume Knob"
- Left-wing beliefs often treat violence as a controllable "volume knob" instead of a moral boundary.
- This leads to legitimizing violence incrementally, increasing societal conflict risks.
Moral Decline Fuels Youth Violence
- A lack of moral foundation and belief in human sanctity correlates with rising youth violence.
- Declining religion and societal care contribute to diminished value of life.
